| Consistent with CRC policy, this 26th Edition of the CRC Standard Math-ematical Tables follows the tradition of its predecessors. The reorganizationof the 25th Edition, with its new multisectional format, is found in this 26thEdition. The customary material contained in earlier editions, plus the newexpository and tabular material included in the 25th Edition, is repeated.However, several desirable additions--expanded sections on Algebra of Sets,Vector Analysis, Finite Difference Interpolation Formulae, Normal Probabil-ity Function; new material on Complex Variables, Coefficients for OrthogonalPolynomials--are to be noted throughout this new edition. This additionalmaterial should prove to be berieficial to applied mathematicians and statisti-cians. It is hoped that this 26th Edition will receive the same popular acceptanceenjoyed by its predecessors. It is suggested that if the user desires more exten-sive and/or additional reference material than provided in this edition, he orshe refer to other CRC publications such as the CRC Handbook of Tablesfor Mathematics (renamed the CRC Handbook of Mathematical Sciences),the CRC Handbook of Tables for Probability and Statistics, etc. The Editor gratefully acknowledges the services rendered by Paul Gottehrer,Senior Editor, for the handling of the detail work so as to make the finalproduction of this edition possible. To the many users of current editions who sent in suggestions for alterna-tions and additions, the Editorial Staff extends a special thanks. It is hopedthat those interested will continue to send in suggestions and Comments toassist in the continous improvement of the contents.588 |
